Skin and Soul


Skin and Soul

I remember the terror that filled me
The thoughts that raced through my head
You’re not perfect
You’re not what he wants
I never thought I was enough

I was ignorant
Always belittling myself
I didn’t know I was beautiful
Couldn’t see I was perfect in his eyes
I was more than enough

I was ready
For him, for this, for more
I wanted him to take me
To claim me as his possession
And become one

His lips reach out for mine
Setting my body aflame
His hands sneak under my shirt
Leaving my skin charred
Wherever his touch landed

He takes the fabric off my skin
And travels upwards to release my breasts
A gasp escapes my lips
He stares at me
With eyes that make me feel majestic

He kneels before me
To free my skin
Crashes through the barriers
Until I’m left exposed
Skin and soul
Deep within

Dark Soul


Dark Soul

Surrounded by bright souls
I felt mine darkening
It used to be like that before-
Bright as the sun, blinding

Bounded to a darkness after the fall
Neither the sun nor the stars were more tempting
Than the warmth of a hellhole
That was as dark as a buried coffin

It’s been so long since I felt this whole
I am a shadow in the brightest light, dominating
Had enough with the light that stole
The black, an ink that’ll keep me breathing
Even after my ending…

Oasis


Oasis

(an immortalization of a beautiful connection)

What if I told you
Great things are awaiting
Beyond the hardships
There’s a future you’re shaping

But what if I didn’t
What if I reminded you
Things were once fucked-up
But you pushed through

I’ve seen the magic
All that you hold, a beauty inside
My moonchild you’re a raging wave
Of love and strength, high-tide

Remember our lesser selves
The ones we left behind
Take a look at yourself
At your majestic new mind

Marvel at the universe
Your loyal guardian angel
Waiting for you to jump
And leap into the danger

Because there’s no gravity here
Nothing to hold you down
With every leap, you’ll soar higher
And forget all the letdowns

You’re almost there
Soon enough you’ll reach it
The oasis you’ve been searching for
I swear it’ll be worth every bit

For You


For You

I’ll write a thousand songs
Just for you

I have a thousand words to say
If you allow me to
You are my poetry
My words are all for you

I wish you knew
How much I wish for you

You’ll always be that wish
The one I can never have
Because I’m a coward…
I’m a coward when it comes to you
